## Resource

The parents of Erica Hume, who died by suicide in 2014 due to preventable failures at a mental health ward, are fiercely opposing a nurse’s bid for permanent name suppression — the only staff member seeking it. The coroner’s latest findings reveal systemic failures, including staff overload and ignored suicide risks, while Health NZ races to implement 20 urgent reforms, including a brand-new $67 million ward. Erica’s parents argue it’s unjust to shield one worker’s identity while her private struggles were laid bare in court — calling it a sign some may be avoiding accountability.
